Back to 1978: Getting rich starts with treasure hunting

The three brothers hurried and finally arrived at the township before the bus passed Shanyin Township.

Lin Wei took out a packet of oil paper from his bag, opened it, and inside were six steamed buns, two for each person.

The three of them were eating steamed buns on the side of the road while waiting for the bus. When they felt the buns were too dry, they drank some boiled water from the kettle.

"It's really hard to wait for this bus. It would be much more convenient if I had a bicycle. I could ride directly towards the county town." Lin Gang squatted on the side of the road, eating a steamed bun while looking in the direction of the bus.

There was not even a ghost at the end of the road, and the bus was nowhere to be seen despite our long wait.

"Having a bicycle is of course convenient. If you come with us this time, we are ready to borrow my little sister's bicycle."

With two people, one sitting on the back seat and one riding in the front, it is really impossible for three grown men to ride a bicycle.

"So it's better to have a bicycle of your own. You can ride it however you want without asking anyone for money." Lin Gang stood up and looked at his two brothers. "When I get my salary, I will buy you a White Pigeon brand bicycle when I have enough money."

In fact, Lin Gang wanted to own a bicycle himself. A brand new bicycle would be suitable for a 1.8-meter-tall guy like him. When he rode on the street, the more crowded the place, the more he would turn the big chain box in the air and pedal backwards. The rattling sound of the chain must be the most pleasant sound on the street, and he would be the most eye-catching guy on the whole street.

That overwhelming sense of superiority is simply the most beloved thing in the world.

Lin Wei shook his head. Now he couldn't help but doubt whether he was right to give this position to the third brother. The job hasn't even been confirmed yet, so how could he dream of getting a salary and buying a bicycle?

Xu Ming in the county town estimated the time and rode his bike to the Gu family's ancestral home.

"Come in and sit down." Gu Jiu opened the door and saw Xu Ming outside, so he moved aside to let him in.

After Xu Ming entered and closed the door, he walked back and said, "It's too hot today. When my two brothers-in-law come, we'll go to the restaurant for lunch."

It was too hot and no one wanted to go into the kitchen to light a fire and cook.

"Okay, it's a deal, you treat us." Xu Ming looked like a materialist, wishing he could hold on to his pockets tightly.

Gu Jiu walked to the recliner and lay down: "Okay, my brother-in-law is coming over, so you don't need to entertain him."

"Tsk, you make it sound like you're the only one who has a brother-in-law." Xu Ming put away another reclining chair and lay down like him: "Hiss, this is comfortable. It's more comfortable for you to live in the ancestral home, the place is spacious, unlike the building we live in, which is too small and can't even put a reclining chair there."

Gu Jiu glared at him: "I prepared this recliner for Shushu!"

"What's wrong with preparing it for her? I won't steal it from you. I'm just lying down. You don't have to be so stingy, right?" Xu Ming asked him with a smile.

Gu Jiu thought that this person offered him a permanent job, so he endured it for the time being, "Humph, you got a bargain."

Xu Ming smiled with satisfaction, "Hey, do you think your brother-in-law will bring money up here?"

Gu Jiuwei closed his eyes and rested. After listening to his words, he said calmly, "The Lin family is not stupid. My father-in-law is a smart and honest head of the family."

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to teach his children well. After living in the Lin family for a few days, he realized that the brothers and sisters in the Lin family have a good relationship, there are no conflicts in the family, and the family atmosphere is very good.

Such a family is very good, and I believe the daughter they educate will be very good too. After marrying him, I believe Lin Shu will be able to get along well with her parents.

"You seem to have confidence in his family. I'm just worried whether they can come up with 500 yuan." Xu Ming expressed his concerns. 500 yuan is a huge sum of money for a rural family.

After hearing this, Gu Jiu was too lazy to pay attention to him.

He didn't forget that Lin Shu had her own bicycle. She dared to buy a bicycle without telling her family, without blinking an eye, which meant that this little girl had more than two or three hundred yuan in savings.

As the two were talking, the time was almost twelve o'clock. After waiting for another half an hour, the three Lin brothers arrived.

Everyone sat down, drank some water, and took a short rest. Lin Wei took out the five hundred yuan he had been protecting along the way.

"Brother Xu, I'm sorry to bother you with this. Our family discussed it last night and decided to give this job to my third brother."

Xu Ming then turned around and looked at the third brother of the Lin family. All three brothers of the Lin family looked good, but the third brother had whiter skin than his two older brothers.

Seeing Xu Ming looking at him, Lin Gang smiled and introduced himself: "Hello, Brother Xu, I am the third child in my family. My name is Lin Gang. You can just call me Gangzi."

Xu Ming smiled and nodded: "It doesn't matter who the job is given to. Gangzi, just give me your letter of introduction and information. It will take a few days to confirm the job. I will notify you then."

Gu Jiu: "Brother San will stay at my place for the next few days. When you have news, report to the unit."

"it is good."

"That won't work."

Lin Wei interrupted Lin as soon as he said yes. Fearing that everyone might misunderstand him, he explained, "Take advantage of these few days and go home tomorrow to get your daily necessities. Once you have finished your work, can't you just report to work directly?"

Xu Ming smiled and explained, "Brother Lin, there's no need to be so nervous. It won't be too late for Gangzi to go back and get daily necessities after the job is settled. New employees in the company usually have a few days to arrange their housework."

This arrangement made Lin Gang very satisfied. He could take this opportunity to have a good stroll in the county town.

A few days later, Lin Gang returned to the Xiaohe Production Team and went to the team leader to get a certificate. Everyone then learned that the Lin family had quietly helped Lin Gang get a formal job in the city.

There were no secrets in the production team, and the news spread throughout the village when people went to work the next day.

Now, it is impossible for the Lin family to keep a low profile.

Li Xiu took advantage of the break after lunch to run to the Lin family's main house and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, I think you guys are not doing this right. You didn't even leak any information about Gangzi's recruitment. Are you afraid that our Xiangzi will take his job?"

These words made Liu Xiao'e and Lin Dashan's faces turn dark instantly.

Liu Xiao'e spat on the ground: "I'm not a big mouth. If I go around complaining about things that I didn't accomplish, won't that make people hate me? And what's the matter with Xiangzi stealing the job? Do you think you can get it if I tell you?"

"I'm not looking down on you, but even if I told you, can you snatch it away with your ability?"

Lin Dahe followed in and pulled back Li Xiu who was about to retort. He shouted to Lin Dashan, "Brother, sister-in-law, don't be angry. She is a spendthrift who knows nothing and can only bully people at home. Don't take what she says seriously."

Lin Dashan ignored this and exchanged glances with Liu Xiaoe. He got straight to the point and asked, "Second Brother, are you here to discuss Gangzi's recruitment?"

Lin Dahe smiled and nodded: "I heard about it at work this morning, and I came here at noon just to confirm with you whether it's true or not."

At this time, He Caiyun poured out two glasses of water: "Uncle, Aunt, drink some water."

Lin Dahe nodded to her and looked at Lin Dashan.

"That's true. Gangzi went to work with his personal belongings this morning."
